OMG, I've started to post like 10 times in the last two days...but can never finish!
We're doing great Lucy. Things have been pretty hectic as Bryce developed jaundice and lost a bunch of weight while in the hosptial. He wasn't BFing, so we had to give him breast milk from a bottle. So that means each feeding consists of me offering the breast, giving him a bottle, then pumping. Which takes over an hour each time. Hence lack of time to post!!
Luckily in the last few days he's started slowly coming around to the breast, so I'm happy. He's finally started putting on weight too - he's up to 6lbs now so almost at his birth weight. The jaundice is settling down and he has more energy.
Maddy is totally in love with her brother, but she's definately testing the waters with us. She's been misbehaving quite a bit, but I can tell she's doing it for attention. I think she'll calm down soon, we just have to be patient with her.
Despite being exhausted, I'm totally smitten with my little man. I forgot about how strong the emotions are when you in the 'falling in love' phase with your child. I look at both of them and my heart just wants to burst.
Lucy, I'm sorry to hear you've been on such a roller coaster of emotions. I hope you feel better soon.
Vicky, I think I may have gotten more sleep than you last night and I have a 7 day old baby!!
Sugar, please don't feel bad. We all loose our temper every once in a while. Believe me this will not be the last time it happens with Charlotte. The important part is that you realize when it's unwarranted.
Sassy, sorry to hear about the colic. Maddy had it too and it was dreadful. My only tip is to invest in a good baby carrier. Carrying her around was the only thing that made her calm down.
Hearty, can't wait to hear more about how parenting is going.
Allie and Hoping, sorry to hear about the fire. I hope things get under control soon.
Nato, how is TTCing going? How's your CM today? Come on, we need some details to obsess over!!
There I did it! Now off to bed for this tired, but happy Mommy!!
I really hope the Gaviscon works. Don't worry about feeling annoyed, it's only natural when you're lilstening to screaming! Just keep reminding yourself that this is a temporary phase and he won't have colic forever. It may be hard to get through the next few weeks but when they're over it will be bliss!
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Im having one of those days and just wanted to scream. Benjamim is being as good as gold but other stuff getting on my nerves today I may be a little hormonal too think Im building up to my period getting crampy pains feel a bit like crying for no reason and just feel wiped out. We have a little tesco express which has just reopened after a refurbishment and they have made it a nightmare to manaover a pram around the shop 
its so annoying do they not think about these things they've put a costa coffee machine in because we really need a coffee machine. I had to say no to going out with a friend and her little girl this afternoon as had to be at home for a new electricity meter to be fitted (they sent us a letter saying we owed £2000 um I dont think so they've now decided it was a faulty meter or some idiot read it wrong) anyway they said they'd be here between 12pm and 6pm but turned up at 11am just as I was puting Benjamin down for a nap which then didnt happen so he went down late. We could of gone out after all oh well. Thanks for letting me rant.

must be on her way),
Round how are you and your little boy doing?
I'm not sure what happened but one look at Facebook led me to believe that's what happened. 
I just feel sick in the pit of my stomach.
